Leela was scorned and thrown away like a fly from a glass of milk by a villainous, greedy and a selfish Menon. She vents her fury on him by seeking the ultimate revenge a woman can come up with. A story told by a friend who is first just a witness to the bizzare goings on between Leela and her divorced husband but later becomes a part of the dirty quagmire. Both of them take recourse to tantriks, plot murders that don t work and in the end an exasperated and frustrated Leela takes an unheard of course. The friend initially looks on in an indifferent and uninterested way at a marriage gone wrong. But he too is drawn into the drama as both sides dangle the ultimate bribe money. His scruples are thrown to the winds as the lure of filthy lucre traps him in the web wovenby a scheming Leela
